Cute car with 2 passengers from Daimler, the Smart ForTwo 999 cc finally slid into the four-wheeled market homeland. This car is available in 3 variants, these three types is the Pure Coupe (IDR 219 million), Passion Coupe (IDR 249 million) and Passion Cabriolet (IDR 269 million), the price is fairly inconsequential to the majority users of home land due to the expensive prices for such of this size of vehicle, more likely that people will turn immediately to the Jazz, Yaris or even Swift.
MBI claims a very high security level for this plastic body car and the level of fuel efficiency, with only 820 kg body weight, the Smart ForTwo will offer a lively driving, because it supported 3-cylinder engine with a capacity of 1.0 liters with two power options. 61 Hp and 89 Nm of torque and 71 hp and torque of 92Nm. So not surprised if its fairly economical of fuel consumption, 1 liter can for a distance of 14 km (in city) and 17 km (out of town). Compare with Atoz or Karimun with average fuel consumption to reach 25 km / L for the route out of town.
MBI is very optimistic with this cute car. Since for the year 2011, MBI has a projection sale for 6000 units to all line of their cars, and Smart ForTwo could be targeted as many as 750 units sold. Hopefully this optimism could bear sweet result and not just a mere display showroom.
